Apply by Feb 22nd: Fellowship for international service work


Raoul Wallenberg International Summer Travel Fellowship
 
About the Fellowship:

In the spirit of Raoul Wallenberg’s experience at Michigan, the Raoul Wallenberg International Summer Travel Fellowship will allow selected students to take part in a community service project or civic participation anywhere in the world. The fellowship will support experiences such as volunteer work with a humanitarian organization like a school, clinic or aid program, or the exploration of humanitarian issues not well understood in the U.S.. Projects should be at least four weeks in duration and take place outside of the U.S. between May and August of the current application cycle. Several fellowships will be made for summer 2013, each in the amount of up to $5000 to cover transportation, room and board, and local excursions made in connection with the project. At least one fellowship will go to an undergraduate student and at least one to a graduate student.

The application deadline is February 22nd, 2013

For eligibility criteria as well as application information, please see M-Compass

Note:  This fellowship should be distinguished from the recently announced Wallenberg Fellowship which is year-long fellowship intended for graduating seniors. More information on this opportunity will be available in early January. For now, please see the University Record press release for further information.
